Stop violence by enforcing the laws we already have

If Ahmad Rashad hurries, he can hop a flight to Vatican City and toss his hat in the ring, so he can "pontificate" against the Second Amendment on a broader scale.

How about furthering the cause of our freedoms and enforce the hefty laws already enacted, Mr. Rashad?

The violence is out of control because we have allowed it to happen. Obama refuses to allow our Justice Department to enforce laws in existence. Criminals are laughing up their sleeves knowing they have the "protection of the law," not their victims.

We have a president who continues to play politics rather than unite us for our common good. Mark my words, the American people will see through his charade and come to the realization we have been duped. If we learn by example, look at Obama's home turf. The most corrupt, infamously derelict city in our land is Obama's Windy City. All those "tough" gun restrictions have not curbed the inner city violence or murders there every day.

Knee-jerk reactions and empty-headed verbiage do nothing to address the issues of lack of respect for our laws and human life.

Responsible gun owners are arming themselves to protect their families and properties. They are not the problem.

The absence of parental guidance, presence and discipline, teachers more concerned with perks than students, the "Bama phone" mentality, the "flash mob" delinquents wrecking havoc on hardworking store owners, these are the root causes of our disintegrating moral foundation!

Enforce the laws we have. Secure our liberties, our borders, our Constitutional rights. And stay out of my nest! I built it!
